Just as I thought we were in the clear, Friday Sammie vomited a few times, and I noticed that she hadn’t been eating a lot.  :(  I immediately called the vet, and got an appointment for Saturday morning (today).

The doctor rechecked her, and took her temperature and she had a slight fever.  It’s possible that the first shot of antibiotics wasn’t enough to make her better, and if it was an infection, the stuff came back.  She got several more injections (Bayril, Metoclopramide for nausea, and more subcutaneous fluids), and I have to give her liquid amoxicillin twice a day for 7 days.  Hopefully this helps her out this time!

An interesting thing I learned… in the past few days Sammie has been going crazy licking fabrics:  straps on bags, curtains, and a particular blanket.  I mentioned this to the doctor, since it was something strange she started, and he said cats will often do that when they are feeling nausea!  So I learned something!
